Story
The story of 'SMS' unfolds over the course of a single day in the life of Laurent, a man whose life spirals out of control after receiving a mysterious text message at 9:00 AM. The chain of events that follows is catastrophic: his mobile phone is stolen one minute later, and by 9:30 AM, his son disappears without a trace. At 10:00 AM, Laurent's house burns down, and by 10:15 AM, his wife leaves him. To add insult to injury, at 10:30 AM, Laurent learns that his company has gone bankrupt. The day's misfortunes culminate in Laurent being arrested at 11:00 AM.
Summary
'SMS' is a French comedy-drama directed by Gabriel Julien-Laferrière and released in 2014. The film follows the protagonist Laurent through an extraordinary bad day, as his life unravels in real-time due to a series of escalating, interconnected events triggered by a single text message received at the start of the day. While not much is mentioned about themes or context beyond the comedic premise of a man's descent into chaos, the film appears to be a commentary on how quickly one's life can change due to circumstances beyond our control.
